Definition of undefined

The term "remote control" has roots in the early 20th century, coinciding with the development of radio technology. The word "remote" originally meant "distant" or "far away", while "control" refers to the act of managing or directing. The first remote controls utilized radio waves to activate devices from a distance. The concept of controlling devices from afar was initially called "wireless control" or "radio control". The term "remote control" emerged later, likely in the 1930s, as a more concise and convenient way to describe the technology.
